Parkinson's disease treatment guide for physicians
Artikelomschrijving
Roughly 1.9 million people are afflicted with Parkinsons disease and, according to the Parkinsons Disease Foundation, that number is on the rise! Parkinsons Disease Treatment Guide for Physicians will comprehensively cover Parkinsons disease (PD), including diagnosis, testing, prognosis, and possible causes. Its primary focus will be on treatment, specifying appropriate drugs, doses, and common side effects. It will address not only the treatment of motor problems (tremor, gait, etc.), but everything else that routinely arises in a PD practice, including osteoporosis prevention, blood pressure, sexual, bowel, or bladder dysfunction, dementia, depression, common skin rashes, and more. This book will mirror Dr. Ahlskogs earlier book, The Parkinsons Treatment Book: Partnering with Your Doctor to Get the Most from Your Medications (2005). Each chapter in the current book will follow the same outline and cover nearly the same material as in each chapter of the earlier patient book, but it will be more succint and direct, with many teaching points summarized wtih bullet points or in small tables.
